It's nothing like Melodies of Life or Aeris' Theme for sure, instead the song is really upbeat peppy and just has an overall feeling of having fun in it. But after a few listens, I actually fell almost in love with the song (it's now one of my favorites). It starts off with "Seagull Group March", something which at first was extremely repulsive to my ears. Like I said, you won't find many strings in this soundtrack like in previous Final Fantasies.ĭisc 2, however, is where the soundtrack really starts to shine. Other notable tracks on the first disc are "Zanarkand Ruins", a really peaceful and serene piece, "Sphere Hunter", an electric organ kind of light rock piece, and "Besaid", which is somewhat reminiscent of FFX's "Besaid Island" with its piano and drum tropical feel. "Sphere Hunter - Seagull Group" has a great bass and brass combo melody in it and is one of the highlights of disc 1. Once I stopped comparing it to Final Fantasies past, the soundtrack actually became really good. It was at this moment I realized this was definitely not a Final Fantasy soundtrack, and decided not to treat it like one. The three YuRiPa battle themes sound more like a dance party than battle music.

The disc is full of either somewhat boring ambient songs or techno, jazz, and synthesized music. Unfortunately, disc 1 pretty much went downhill from here.

If you liked "Hikari - Simple & Clean" from Kingdom Hearts, I think you'd like this song. Surprising, I really enjoyed this song by the time it was over. It is definitely nothing comparable to Liberi Fatali or FFXI's Opening Theme.

I believe this upbeat techno-pop vocal song is FFX-2's introduction music. Next came "Real Emotion", a jarring transition from the first track. It started out beautifully with "Eternity - Memory of Lightwaves", a piano solo I immediately wanted the sheet music for. I was among these people as I listened to it for the first time. As a result of this new direction, many fans of Uematsu's masterpieces may be very well disappointed, if not disgusted, by this soundtrack. As it turns out, just as Final Fantasy X-2 looks to have taken a complete change in direction from the previous installments, this soundtrack does the same. Reviews Not your typical Final Fantasy music, but not necessarily bad either.īecause this was the first soundtrack I had purchased before the I played game itself, and the fact that Nobuo Uematsu had no part in this soundtrack, I was skeptical as to how much I would enjoy this change of pace.
